Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.”
a g e n c y. i want to make such women proud.
just to be clear - a woman who created a hashtag meant to convey the message “no, not all may be sexual aggressors but yes, all women have experienced sexism to some degree” shut down her account after repeated harassment. she wasn’t generalizing men. she wasn’t making broad, sweeping statements that people claim are the problem with women’s movements. she was only opening a conversation centered around personal stories. what is anyone supposed to take from this except that many people are simply not interested in hearing these stories at all, as sugarcoated as they may be, as tactfully they may be put? not without redirecting the conversation to focus away from women, at any rate.

I cannot decide if they are wizards or ninja. Why was wand class lost to the ravages of time?
